| readers who like gossip rabbits, afraid of missing new articles, welcome to "set as a star"
This year's "Clocks and Wonders" exhibition has long ended, but the fun watch is far from finished - the rabbit has been writing viciously for a month, but it has not been written. This time, I plan to divide into two parts, first let the big guys play first, and appreciate the first.
We can also use this to understand the product strategies and characteristics of each brand, from the showmanship model to the daily model, have a grasp in mind, and spend money to have confidence.
In fact, more importantly, let you have a document to brush during the May Day holiday!
Lange
First of all, look at the performance of Lange, for high-end brands, watches are not necessarily many, and highlights will be remembered.
The most eye-catching of the year is the RICHARD LANGE Richard Lange Trinity Watch, 39 mm diameter, platinum 950, limited to 50 pieces, equipped with a white enamel dial with a three-layer structure.
Outer ring train track minute scale and small seconds at 6 o'clock position, classic style
As far as watches are concerned, I personally like the "simple dress of the big guy style" of sanqing. The disc design is classic, does not take a complicated route, the layman looks like a regular formal watch, but the left sliding device exposes its identity.
And this is also the reason why many people love it - only those who understand it understand it.
The bass represents the hour, the double tone represents the quarter of an hour, and the treble represents the number of minutes. When the three-question device is activated, the sapphire crystal bottom cover can be seen through the whole process of hitting the sound spring with a sound mallet.
To this extent, it is impossible to miss a single detail
For the three questions, it is not enough to knock out the sound, the effect of the sound is very challenging process, even if the shape, weight, size, etc. of the gavel, the precious metal material of the shell and so on will be affected.
Chopin
Chopard men's watch in recent years the most powerful is the Alpine Eagle Snow Mountain Pride series, the other day there were readers in the group to nag for a piece.
We see a lot of daily models, and this year Chopard added a new flying tourbillon watch.
It is the first complication watch in the series to receive the Geneva Seal and is also certified by the Official Observatory of COSC
The dial is Aletsch Glacier Blue Textured Texture, 41 mm diameter, with an integrated integrated bracelet.
It is powered by Chopard's newly released L.U.C 96.24-L calibre, 3.30 mm thick, 65 hours of power reserve, and automatically winding by a 22K gold miniature oscillating weight.
There is a detail that the 6 o'clock flying tourbillon frame is displayed with a small second hand display, and there is a stop-second function.
earl
This year, Piaget launched the Alpino Ultra Slim Series Ultimate Concept Tribute Edition, made of high-tech cobalt-based alloys.
The shell material color and sandblasted surface rock blue PVD panel are also part of the visual combination
It is only two millimeters thick. Because Piaget broke the 4-layer structure of the traditional watch, the components were fused into a collective 2-layer structure – one layer is the bridge, dial and hands, and the other is the case cover, movement, motherboard and bezel.
Look at this side, shock no
In fact, The Earl's ultra-thin history is no stranger to everyone, born in 1957, the 9P movement, the thickness of only 2 mm, then set a record. The Count has since embarked on this path of challenge.
The watch series debuted at the 2018 Geneva Haute Horlogerie show, and it was mass-produced in just 2 years, going on sale in April 2020.
And today's tribute edition of the watch, there are many details of the heart. For example, the Piaget brand logo at the top uses the same font used in the history of the brand's birthplace, La Côte-aux-Fées.
The small window number at 2:30 is the date of the birth of the first watch in the series, and the longitude and latitude coordinates of the workshop fairy slope are also written on the steel wheel
It has a 40-hour power reserve and a diameter of 41 mm, which encourages everyone to get started.
Hublot watches
Hublot has played sapphire materials clearly over the years. And this year, a new color that is very popular with me (the exclusive color of The Bagua Rabbit) has appeared - the BIG BANG automatic winding tourbillon purple sapphire watch.
This is also hublot's latest release of the world's first and exclusive brand-specific synthetic sapphire material
Hublot's watchmaking team used a composite of alumina and chromium to create a new purple hue – a bright and transparent effect. The bezel is also purple sapphire and is paired with 6 Big Bang series signature H-shaped titanium screws.
Transparent purple structured strap lined with rubber strap with patented "one-touch" quick-change strap system and titanium folding clasp
Hublot has played transparent, all black, red, blue, yellow, orange and other colors in the sapphire field in the past, and purple has become popular in recent years and has become popular from the niche. However, this watch, there are only 50 pieces.
It is equipped with a HUB6035 self-winding tourbillon movement with a miniature oscillating weight and a 72-hour power reserve.
Jaeger-LeCoultre
The most distinctive feature of Jaeger-LeCoultre is actually the air clock, but as a niche category, we do not often introduce it - everyone needs a variety of things, if Jaeger-LeCoultre has anything to buy, the first is the air clock.
Jaeger-LeCoultre's ultra-complex series Calibre 590 air clock (also known as the Atmos Tellurium Air Clock) this year is the most complex Atmos air clock to date.
It presents the relative position and motion of the Earth, the Sun and the Moon in three dimensions
The Atmos air clock was born in 1928, it can wind the movement without manual intervention, the principle is to rely on the temperature difference to provide energy - such as 1 degree Celsius temperature difference can provide 48 hours of energy, in the daily environment can be close to perpetual motion.
Equipped with 443 parts and the intricacies of a chronometer, the movement is not only equipped with an astronomical clock model that accurately reproduces the rotation of the Earth, the trajectory of the Moon around the Earth and the earth's orbit around the Sun, but also indicates the corresponding months and seasons through the zodiac calendar.
It's great to watch
The principle is complex and the space is limited, the rabbit will not elaborate, and when you have the opportunity to carry it home, you will slowly study it.
Van Cleef & Arpels
VCA this year's planetarium is also amazing, before a reader asked me to ask about the price, the result of a query of 60 million has been collected by the collector, die.
The Planétarium planetarium automatic mechanism has a height of 50 cm, and its automatic puppet movement includes a planetarium and 11 other modules, such as hour/minute, perpetual calendar, 15-day power reserve, etc.
The melody is played by a music box and a chime device with bells and hammers.
The base and planet use a variety of gems, without stinginess
As early as 2014, Van Cleef & Arpels made a planetarium - the Midnight Planétarium watch, the dial has the trajectory of the planets of the solar system, everyone should be familiar with it, and this work is an expansion.
In fact, knowledgeable people understand that the meteor also uses VCA's most famous Mystery Set traditional secret mosaic, and the value is needless to say.
Hermès
Hermès' most distinctive arceau Les folies du ciel soaring skyline watch this year is inspired by the Les folies du ciel (Dream of Soaring Sky) square scarf designed by Loïc Dubigeon in 1984 to commemorate the early history of human flight.
38 mm white gold case, pattern let us feel the moment when human beings finally fly
It brings together 18 early aircraft concepts, including hot air balloons, airships, and spaceships.
The mother-of-pearl dial has two green-pink hot air balloons. The pattern is fired to give a convex texture. The bottom of the balloon is adorned with a hand-painted hanging basket made of white gold like a bird.
Birds have been a symbol of travel and migration since ancient times, and they were the first source of inspiration for the design of flying machines
The hand-painted balloon at 12 o'clock is a balance wheel that rotates in place in the air with the movement of the wrist.
There are only 24 watches in this piece.
Chanel
It is another year of J12 brilliance, Chanel's creativity is no doubt, this year's new watch has my goal, but for the time being, keep it a secret, first share with you a piece of like but can not afford - MADEMOISELLE J12 LA PAUSA watch.
Familiar? In 2017, the MADEMOISELLE J12 watch was born, and the image of Ms. Chanel was placed on the dial, with two hands as hands. At that time, many people chased this watch with hindsight, and then the price soared on the auction floor.
Unfortunately, by the time everyone understands, the opportunity is gone.
This year's new model is a Chanel lady in a sailor suit, inspired by a photograph of her in the garden of villa La Pausa on the French Riviera. But the cruel thing is that the outer ring is a drill ring, and it took me only 2 seconds from surprise to despair...
There are only 55 pieces of this watch, which is equipped with caliber 12.1 calibre.
For most people, luxury watches can only be seen, but they are themselves a factor that makes us happy.
I often advise newcomers not to just look at the same so-called blockbusters, because they will hinder the pace of appreciation, and thus be trapped in the solidified thinking.
Beauty is about opening our eyes to knowing that too much may exist. Buying a watch is a long road, and someone will always realize it one day.
